307 half of the country
“"The Rise of Generation Y Actors", this is the biggest feeling people have about the Golden Globe nomination list. Among the twenty nominations in the leading role department, young actors jointly occupy ten nomination seats, in the true sense half of the country; even for supporting roles The department is no exception. Among the ten nominations, Andrew Garfield of "The Social Network" and Mi-kunis of "Black Swan" are also particularly prominent..
In other words, in the acting department, a total of twelve actors from Generation Y were nominated, which is unique in previous years and truly shows a prosperous era of renewal and prosperity.！
Among this list of nominations, the most eye-catching one is not Natalie, who is most likely to win the first statuette of "Generation Y", but two new actors in their early twenties, Jennifer Lawrence and Renly. Hall.
For Hollywood, which loves the new and hates the old, they always open their arms to welcome talents. Almost every year, we can see countless talented new stars emerging. But even so, two outstanding stars in their early twenties appeared in succession. Actors, this is still rare.
Jennifer showed a spiritual and compelling performance in "Winter's Bone". The delicate yet profound performance made everyone's eyes shine. Her calmness and sophistication that belie her age received a lot of praise, almost Effortlessly making it all the way to the year-end awards season.
For a small-budget independent work without the support of a strong distribution company, this is a typical Hollywood dream, witnessing the glory and happiness of overnight fame..
If Jennifer's sudden emergence is an inevitable law in Hollywood, then Renly's strong rise seems incredible..
It is always relatively "easier" for new actresses to get ahead in Hollywood. Under the control of male supremacy, Hollywood is always looking forward to the emergence of more new faces. Until now, the frequency of replacement of star actresses Still at a high level, under the control of the idea of "materialization", beautiful young faces can always easily get opportunities and become a beautiful scenery in movies..
The same is true at the performance level. For performances of the same level, it is always easier for actresses to receive nominations or even win awards, while it is much more difficult for male actors. Kate Winslet and Leonardo in "Titanic" - DiCaprio, Reese-Witherspoon and Joaquin-Phoenix of "Singing With You," Michelle Williams of "Blue Valentine" and Ryan Gosling and so on..
Above the Oscars, the Best Supporting Actor department is known as a nursing home. Veteran actors who have been working hard for many years are always more likely to win the award, because the Academy judges believe that young people still have a lot of time. , slowly polished; while the Best Supporting Actress department is considered the cradle of new stars, young, energetic, and youthful new actors will be more likely to receive awards, because the academy judges hope to see more young people emerge to maintain freshness..
Of course, this all comes at a price.
The prime period of actresses is usually before the age of thirty-five. In 2015, Hollywood actresses jointly appealed to MDB, and their true ages were announced on the website. Producers are often more willing to use younger actors. After the age of thirty-five, Actors have a hard time finding work, so they ask IMDB to stop disclosing their age.
The golden age of actors is generally after the age of thirty-five. In their youth, most of them can only play some idol roles, or they are polishing their supporting roles, waiting for their own opportunities. It takes a long time to win an Oscar. In the long history of the film, there has only been one Best Actor winner under the age of thirty, Adrien-Brody of "The Pianist" - he was twenty when he won the award. Nine years, three hundred and forty-three years.
It was against this background that Renly appeared.
On the 20th of last month, Renly just celebrated his 21st birthday and reached the legal drinking age in the United States. For Hollywood, this is actually no different from high school students, except for "Back to the Future" ”, “High School Musical”, and “American Pie” and other teen movies, there are almost no film projects that determine the male protagonist to be at this age..
Because such young people have just emerged from adolescence, their acting skills are not solid enough, their roles are not rich enough, and their performance types are not diverse enough. They are in an awkward position of neither rising nor falling..
More importantly, it is very difficult to create art at this age. Children have family crises and childhood perspectives, high school students and college students have growing pains and social fears, and middle-aged people have middle-class midlife crises. ...But young people who have just left college are just adapting to the confusion of society, and it is difficult to discover more content in artistic creation..
Not only that, the main consumer groups in the film market are not at this stage, which means that even if a film for this age group is produced, the audience group will be too narrow and it will be difficult to achieve good results in the end. This also makes it difficult for various production companies to raise interest.
Therefore, in Hollywood, actors between the ages of twenty and twenty-five are in the most uncomfortable position. Many actors either grit their teeth and get through it, and the situation will be much better after they turn twenty-six; Submerged in countless fresh faces, gradually disappearing from the public eye.
Zac-Efron is the most typical representative. He became famous all over the world with "High School Musical" at the age of seventeen. After the trilogy was filmed, he was just nineteen years old, and then he fell into a four-year-long... During the years of struggle, on the one hand, he could not go back to play high school students, but on the other hand, he was not competitive for older roles. Even when filming a chick love movie, he could not compete with the main actors in their thirties..
This situation lasted until he was twenty-five years old, but after that, his path as an actor gradually changed into a comedian who sold his body. His development path became narrower and narrower, and he gradually became a type. Movies. Just like Vin Diesel or Adam Sandler.
The same was true when Renly auditioned for "War in the Pacific". Eugene Sledge was a nineteen-year-old boy, but Steven Spielberg would rather choose the twenty-six-year-old Joseph Mazzero. Willing to choose twenty-year-old Renly. If it weren't for the unexpected encounter that night that changed Steven's mind, the situation would be completely different now..
Now, Renly has broken the shackles of age and written a miracle.
First, he won the King of Television trophy at the Emmy Awards, and then gave a stunning performance in "Buried Alive". He occupied an unshakable position in the awards season and received his first Golden Globe Award nomination in one go! and a second Golden Globe nomination！
In addition to being nominated for Best Actor in a Drama Series, "The Pacific" once again earned Renly a nomination for Best Actor in a Miniseries or Television Movie.！
Like Johnny Depp, he received two nominations as an actor and stood out among the nomination list..
Just when everyone thought that "The War in the Pacific" was already the peak for new actors, Renly handed over the work "Buried Alive", came to Toronto with an incredible appearance, and embarked on a fairy tale journey of rising from the bottom. As the male protagonist, Renly's young and immature shoulders show a rare sense of grandeur and composure..
For a young man who has just turned twenty-one, it is not an exaggeration to use any gorgeous words to describe it. Hollywood has not seen such an outstanding young man for several years. The last one triggered The young actor who has received so many admirations is undoubtedly Heath Ledger.
But even Heath did not meet "Brokeback Mountain" until he was twenty-five years old. Now, Renly is four years younger than Heath.！
Therefore, when the nomination list for the Golden Globe Awards came out, the entire Hollywood was plunged into a frenzy of praise, celebrating that the golden age of Generation Y actors had officially arrived, and that the replacement of actors had emerged. We celebrate another breakthrough in the film industry, we also celebrate the outstanding performance of the new generation of actors, and we celebrate that they have witnessed the rise of a generation of geniuses.！
“The Hollywood Reporter, as an industry leader, produced a special issue on "The Rise of Generation Y".
Among them, the one who ranks first is undoubtedly Natalie Portman, who is well-deservedly considered by the magazine to be the actress most promising to become a future superstar; and the second one, to everyone’s surprise, “ "The Hollywood Reporter" gave up on James Franco, who has been strong this year, and Ryan Gosling, who has had many good films in the past four years, and chose Renly Hall..
“Talented, determined, powerful and elegant, Renly evokes memories of the great stars of the Golden Age..”
From the brief review, you can clearly feel the admiration for Renly from "The Hollywood Reporter". The recognition of this authoritative magazine in the industry can be called the greatest affirmation of the work "Buried Alive".
But the "Hollywood Reporter" is not alone. Praise from other media is also endless. Countless flowers and applause surround Renly. People are discussing who can receive the nomination at this year's Oscar Awards. ? Can Renly reach the next level and write a miracle?？
Ryan had received his first Oscar nomination four years ago for "Half Nelson", when he was only twenty-six years old; now, Jesse, James and Renly all hope to break through and win. My first Oscar nomination. The fierce competition among the new generation is extremely cruel, but it makes people excited..
In particular, the duel between the two works "127 Hours" and "Buried Alive", as well as the head-on fight between James and Renly, gradually emerged as the awards season progressed. One film occupied the focus of the topic at the right time and in the right place. , and the other one is an absolute dark horse that doesn’t show off anything. The battle between the two is becoming increasingly fierce..
It is generally believed that there can only be one survivor of these two works at the Oscars, but who it is, the awards season has just begun, and it is not yet known who will win..
“Half of the Golden Globe Awards belong to Generation Y. The era is coming！”
